Never Was About Technology? Time to Focus on Learning? June 17, 2009. As I am attempting to grasp the magnitude of how to be/become/ grow into a piece of the puzzle that helps start (? Develop and eventually complete a shift of our schools to better prepare and help students learn “TODAY”. (P.S. I am getting a little tired of the “21st century” label, since we are almost 10 years into that new century…),. I wonder… What makes the difference? Does Technology (Integration) really make the difference? Now, ...

Reflections on learning, leadership and education. July 27, 2010. Why communities of schools? Posted by sudsnz2 under collaboration. Why cluster or develop communities of schools? Here are a few reasons taken from a proposal that will go to AorakiNet and Cantatech Principals soon. Thanks to the VLN community for the contributions. Benefits to the learner.

Reflections on learning, leadership and education. November 12, 2008. Posted by sudsnz2 under collaboration. Collaboration, collaboration, collaboration. So what does it actually mean? I didn’t have an opportunity to plan for this year at the end of the previous year, so this is what I think should happen next year. A jumbo day at the start of the year where everyone meets face to face. This is imperative and is something they have done at Volcanics. Any meetings needed to be calendared at the end of thi...

Reflections on learning, leadership and education. I just read another sweeping statement on boys and NCEA. This time from the Principal of Wellington High School in an article on stuff.

At Scribd or explore. I have embedded Rose’s PPt above, which she kindly gave me permission to do. Have a good look through it as it is very good and is a nice sequel to Rachel Bolstad’s presentation in an earlier post. Now where does assessment and NCEA sit with all this?

Reflections on learning, leadership and education. November 2, 2008. Selling all over the place…. Posted by sudsnz2 under School Visits. I have been much travelled over the past two weeks, with only one full day each week spent at home working. Somewhat ironic when you consider the techonology that is available to cut down time and distance, but sometimes you need to just get into the schools and build relationships face to face. Cheviot Area School, Oxford Area School. Have their own Moodle site. I real...
